Weeping In The Promised Land

Lyrics

Water in new well been poisoned with lie
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 Satan's dark angels are falling from the sky
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 Children of God, he turns into stone
 Sick and the weak, he dancing on their bones
 Pharaoh shouting down the medicine man
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 ♪
 ♪
 Forked-tongued pharaoh, behold he comes to speak
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 Hissing and spewing, it's power that he seeks
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 With dread in their eyes, all the nurses are crying
 So much sorrow, so much dying
 Pharaoh keep a-preaching but he never had a plan
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 You say, weeping, weeping
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 You say, weeping, weeping
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 ♪
 Pharaoh's army knocking on the door
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 Shoot you in your bed just like they done before
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 Out in the street, on your neck with a knee
 All the people are crying your last words, "I can't breathe"
 And a white judge say, "There been no crime here today"
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 You say, weeping, weeping
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 You say, weeping, weeping
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 Well, we're weeping, weeping
 Weeping in the Promised Land
 Yeah, weeping, weeping
 Weeping in the Promised Land
